    Bug: Eliza DLC doesn't unlock

    I had this same bug when I first downloaded Eliza. Try going to your DLC manager, uninstalling her, and reinstalling her.

    Show region before accepting Quick Match?

    This is perhaps an odd request, but at the screen that shows ping and asks the player to accept/deny a game in QM, would it be possible to get region shown as well as ping? I find that high pings to Asia and sometimes Europe are perfectly playable, but high pings within North America usually...

    Another training diary that no one will read or care about

    Any ideas on what kind of setups I should be looking for that beat reversals (aside from "IAD into the Pillar blind spot" stuff)? I mean, especially in Eliza, with her hitboxes, if I've got a hitbox anywhere near them, there's a hurtbox that'll get blasted by any reversal, and if I do a Sekhmet...

    Care to repost that saltpost you made here then after losing the FT7 against my team with your solo Fukua? EVERYONE gets hit by AA assists sometimes. Stop pretending that you're an exception.

    So, making an assist call that may not be 100% optimal (although people do jump into it all the damn time, so that's another story...) is disrespectful and insulting, but teabagging constantly is isn't? K. #SkulgirlsCommunity.

    Another training diary that no one will read or care about

    So, @Hirokuni apparently really hates watching me call assist + neutral jump. I do it for two reasons; Hirokuni, I'd be interested in knowing how you cover both of these scnearios: 1. Expected reversal. If they do reversal, it gets blocked and punished; if they were teching a throw, I'm not...

    Duos VS Trios

    I'm not asking for buffs or nerfs. I have no idea where the hell you got that from. I'm simply stating the fact that 2s don't have a damage/life advantage over 3s, contrary to popular belief.

    Duos VS Trios

    Parasouls I've talked to agree that the Parasoul vs. Fukua matchup is actually a lot worse than the Parasoul vs. Peacock matchup.

    Duos VS Trios

    Exactly how the FUCK are you coming up with those matchup numbers? I mean, I guess at 3v2 ratio, your Parasoul would be less likely to completely run through Peacock on her own, sure, BUT THAT'S TRUE OF LITERALLY EVERY SINGLE MATCHUP IN THE GAME, assists aside. You know, because your larger...

    Duos VS Trios

    EDIT: This is in response to Sage. So, what you're saying is that something else entirely was streamed, and the matches we saw where some player went from Parasoul/Bella/Double in earlier matches to Double/Bella against a Peacock weren't your games at Evo 2014? Seems legit.

    Duos VS Trios

    Look at the extension. It's an image file. One that will lay bare the mysteries of "2s do more damage than 3s" (they actually don't. In fact, they actually do slightly less, when looking at whole team HP.) If you're running Parasoul as your point character (as opposed to needing her for an...

    Duos VS Trios

    If I'm playing Parasoul vs. Peacock, I'd much rather have Para on a 3 character team than a 2 character team. On a 3 character team, only 1/3rd of my team is Parasoul.

    My eyebrows hurt :(

    One thing about Joystick vs. Hitbox is that some people (including me) find that the wrist on their "direction hand" gets sore when playing long sessions on Hitbox (after all, you [should] be moving direction-wise a lot more than you really hit buttons, so that hand gets stressed a lot harder.)

    It won't, because it only affects tears thrown in the first few frames of a jump, not the launch -> things -> j.hpxx214LK stuff.

    Skullgirls PC Beta Updates Discussion

    Figures that TK toss stuff would be removed right as I finally start learning it. I can't complain too much, though; it's fairly clear that Parasoul's tear mechanic wasn't supposed to be "j.lp gets EVEN BETTER when you jump backwards as long as you do the jump with a special input first". The...

    Waiting for a solo-Double beta combo vid titled "The New Testament according to The New Testament". I like recursion.

    Duos VS Trios

    Having both available is hugely beneficial, since they do different things. It multiplies the number of mixups someone has to guess right on by at least 2. You basically just made someone half as likely to block your pressure correctly. That's pretty huge. Literally zero, since a "team"...

    Duos VS Trios

    A parameter that doesn't matter because we're just multiplying two numbers by the same number, which won't change which number is larger? (And it doesn't change which is larger; the trio's total damage expressed as a % of total life in the case you described is higher by about 0.1%. Not...

    Duos VS Trios

    Believe it or not, math, not anecdotes, is the best way to determine which of two numbers is larger. Sure, there are cases where a duo will effectively have more life than a trio because of character deaths and red health. But there's also cases where a trio will have more health, because a...
